I've kept voluminous diaries since I was eighteen, and do a lot of experimental writing.

Both of my parents were cartoonists - they met in art school - so I was always drawing and I was the best artist in my class and all that stuff.

I like to follow my own muse.

In real life, people are going by fast and it's hard to draw them from my eye alone in a split second.

Karma simply means that whatever type of energy you project, or you allow to pass through your being, you will become for a period of time.

I don't watch penalties in my hotel room. I watch naughty videos

Sovereignty is a question of principle. We must tell the Iraqis: you are a sovereign people. And you are in charge of your own future.

Lotta people don't know where Utah is but it in Salt Lake.
